    you are request qmake from system bin prefix since
    you are inside directory as i can see
    /opt/qt/bin
    use ./qmake instead of qmake
    or use
    @
    cd ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport && /opt/qt/bin/qmake ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport/qtserialport.pro && make
    @
    then
    @
    sudo make install
    @

    Hi,

    tried your command seiko but still get the errors...

    cd ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport && /opt/qt/bin/qmake ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport/qtserialport.pro && make

    I think I'm still missing sth but can't figure exactly what....

    Thanks.

    Are you sure from install qt 4.8 ?
    Because the error still exist "QElapsedTimer"

    @
    qserialport_unix.cpp:58:34: error: QtCore/qelapsedtimer.h: No such file or directory
    qserialport_unix.cpp: In member function ‘bool QSerialPortPrivate::waitForReadyRead(int)’:
    qserialport_unix.cpp:427: error: ‘QElapsedTimer’ was not declared in this scope
    @

    By enter follow command you should see what's your qt version

    @
    /opt/qt/bin/qmake -v && /opt/qt/bin/moc -v
    @

    QMake version 2.01a
    Using Qt version 4.8.2 in /opt/qt/lib

    first of all check qt doc link "check qt doc link...":http://qt-project.org/wiki/QtSerialPort and re-extract to get a clean dir of QtSerialPort
    because what I see here from your log
    looks like duplicated qmake or you moc version isn't the same as qmake

    /home/julian/Downloads/qt-qtserialport/src/serialport/moc_qserialport.cpp:16:2:
    @
    check your moc version
    @
    /opt/qt/bin/moc -v
    @
    Also your qtopia using old qt flags

    Qt Meta Object Compiler version 63 (Qt 4.8.2)

    Would it help if I uninstall qt4-emebedded ?

    I think it has worked this time.
    So I downloaded qt-qtserialport once more and extracted it.
    Then :
    @cd ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport
    /opt/qt/bin/qmake ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport/qtserialport.pro
    make
    sudo make install
    @
    and it finished without errors. I'm gonna check how it's going in QTCreator.

    Ok, last step would be having it in QtCreator obviously.

    When I add :
    #include <QtSerialPort/QSerialPort>
    #include <QtSerialPort/QSerialInfo>
    and try to build, it says :
    No such file or directory.
    Another parameter to configure ?

    Because you forget to add
    @
    CONFIG += serialport
    @
    in your .pro file

    Note: CONFIG += serialport must be the first or second line in your .pro file.

    I don't think so , If you upgraded your qt version to 4.8 so your qt4-emebedded gonna upgraded too

    Here was my guess you used qmake version 4.6.3 then after you upgrade
    you used qmake version 4.8.2 without clean the old moc files and MakeFile

    so I think everything gonna work fine with you this time

    Sorry, I forgot to mention I had done it too.

    @QT += core gui
    CONFIG += serialport
    greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

    TARGET = QTTest2
    target.files = QTTest2
    target.path = /home/root

    INSTALLS += target
    TEMPLATE = app

    SOURCES += main.cpp
    mainwindow.cpp

    HEADERS += mainwindow.h

    FORMS += mainwindow.ui@

    Well in that case qt creator has different qmake
    since you had been upgraded your qt you have to add a new qt kit
    for /opt/qt/bin/qmake and make it a default qt for your project

    You're right it had gone back to qt 4.6.3 qmake.
    All errors have disappeared.
    I'm gonne make a small test program and mark this subject as solved if everything goes fine.

    Thank you for your help ! Great community !
    Special thanks to you seiko !

    Ok, just a last problem then I think I'll be ready to fly on my own.

    I compiled the "terminal" example and it was displayed on the beaglebone screen. But I wanted to change the mainWindow resolution cause the example was really small and I should have made sth wrong cause now I get this error :

    16:06:32: Running steps for project terminal...
    16:06:32: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step.

    the linker can't find QtGui because in follow directory you should have
    QT library and I don't why qt qmake didn't even provide the path of lib maybe you should recall qmake
    @
    /usr/local/angstrom/arm/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib
